Troubleshooting & FAQ
How do I know if this bearing fits my engine?
The most reliable way is to match your engine's original part number to the ones listed: Yamaha 6EK-11656-30 or Parsun PAF115-05020203-3. If you are unsure, consult your engine's service manual or a qualified marine mechanic.
What are the signs of a worn connecting rod bearing?
Common symptoms include a persistent knocking or ticking sound from the engine (rod knock), low oil pressure, and the presence of metallic particles or shavings in the engine oil during an oil change.
Is this bearing pre-lubricated?
No. New bearings are shipped dry. It is critical to coat the bearing surfaces with a high-quality engine assembly lubricant before installation to prevent damage during initial startup.
What is the correct installation orientation for the bearing?
Most bearings have a small tang or notch that fits into a corresponding groove in the connecting rod to prevent rotation. Ensure this tang is correctly aligned. Always refer to your engine's service manual for detailed diagrams and instructions.
How often should connecting rod bearings be replaced?
Connecting rod bearings are not a routine maintenance item. They are typically replaced during a complete engine overhaul or when signs of wear, such as engine knock or low oil pressure, become apparent.
OEM vs. Aftermarket?
This listing is an aftermarket replacement (not OEM). Built to OEM-level specifications with comparable materials. Manufactured in an ISO 9002 facility, batch-inspected for consistency.
